Saw on NFL Network the 2019 Regular Season Schedule will be released Wednesday @ 8PM Eastern on NFLN.

Where do some of you think the Bengals open up?

@ Baltimore, @ Pittsburgh: Can't be either one as both the Pirates and Orioles are at home 9/8. Could be Monday Night early as
the baseball teams are either on the road or have the night off. However Browns @ Jets seems to be
getting the most attention as the MNF Early game.

@ LA Rams: Game has already been confirmed for London. Never has there been a London game Week #1

@ Miami: Possible

@ Buffalo: Possible

@ Oakland: A's at The Coliseum Week #1. Could be MNF late since A's are off, but no Eastren Time Zone team has played in the late MNF Game Week #1.

@ Cleveland: As mentioned above Browns @ Jets is being rumored as early MNF game since it is MNF's 50th season and Jets @ Browns was the 1st ever MNF game.

@ Seattle: My prediction. We can get 1 of 2 West Coast trips out of the way right off the bat.

It could actually happen as late MNF game, but highly unlikely Bengals open on MNF.

Actually I was trying to come up with the worst possible schedule for the Bengals. So opening in Oakland on a Monday night would be even worse in this case. Give us a short week to fly to London, and then a short week when we fly back.

I agree.

Save for flexing; we still haven't won a Sunday Nighter, since 2006 or whatever. And NBC is bad luck; too much negativity and shit-talking from that network, when we play there.

I don't like them getting a bye in the 3rd or 4th week like they did a few years ago. It's worthless to them so early on.
